Ingredients
  

  • 1 container plain hummus
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Equipment

  • Smoked Paprika
  • Maple Syrup
  • Canned Pumpkin Puree

Method
 

  1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the plain hummus. This will be the base of your dip, providing that creamy texture we love.
  2. Next, scoop in the pumpkin puree. The vibrant color and flavor will transform your hummus into a fall masterpiece.
  3. Now, add the maple syrup and fresh lemon juice. The maple syrup will sweeten the dip, while the lemon juice will add a refreshing zing.
  4. Sprinkle in the smoked paprika and kosher salt. These ingredients will enhance the overall flavor, making it rich and savory.
  5. Stir everything together until well combined. You want to see a uniform color and texture without any lumps. The smooth consistency is key!
  6. Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning if necessary. If it needs more sweetness, add a bit more maple syrup, or if you want more acidity, increase the lemon juice.
  7. To serve, spread the hummus on a platter or transfer it to a bowl. This is where the presentation comes into play!
  8. Drizzle the top with olive oil for that extra richness. Don't be shy; a generous drizzle will make it look even more inviting.
  9. Garnish with pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for a pop of color and crunch.
  10. Finally, serve the Easy Pumpkin Hummus with your choice of dippers. I recommend fresh vegetables or pita chips for the ultimate pairing!
